The rioters are trying to trigger a Kent State-type response. That’s the whole objective.
Agree.
They want to provoke Trump to send in the troops which is why it's prudent he doesn't.
The best thing for Trump to do is to Tweet and comment on these events in each city and point out they're ongoing and local 'leaders' aren't doing anything to stop them. Make it front and center of his Tweets and point out how the media isn't covering this news.
Make it clear he's willing to help but ONLY if they ask for his help. They won't so the mayors are stuck with ongoing 'protests'.
